Chapter 124: Death Upon Seeing Fire
At that moment, he was surprised by her lightness, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.
When Lin Yu wanted to place Zhang Yuru on the sofa, she suddenly hugged his neck tightly and said urgently: "Lin Yu, don't leave me; I regret it; let's start over."
A flash of reluctance crossed Lin Yu's eyes.
Once, in order to marry Zhang Yuru, he disbanded the Yulong Pavilion and abandoned those brothers who followed him to revive Chinese medicine.
And now, with the announcement of the reorganization of the Yulong Pavilion, the uncertainty of the future made Lin Yu feel worried.
Especially after several confrontations with the Chrysanthemum Society of the Neon country, he knew deeply the danger that remarriage might bring to Zhang Yuru.
Lin Yu loved Zhang Yuru; he loved her purity.
Agreeing to the divorce initially was out of respect for Zhang Yuru, although this might have been a mistake.
People are not sages; who can avoid making mistakes?
Realizing mistakes early is always better than regretting them later.
Lin Yu believed he had the ability to help Zhang Yuru make up for these mistakes.
But considering Zhang Yuru's safety, he could not and would not easily agree to the request for remarriage.
More importantly, after Zhang Yuru was expelled by the Zhang Clan, she also cut off contact with Hanfang Pharmaceutical, temporarily staying away from the vortex of struggle.
Lin Yu didn't want to drag her into it again, "Rest well..."
This was the last thing Lin Yu left for Zhang Yuru, preparing to leave.
However, Zhang Yuru wrapped around Lin Yu like an octopus, full of fear in her heart.
In one day and one night, she lost her company, her family, and the betrayal of her best friend.
Faced with all this, Lin Yu became the only person she could rely on.
"I was wrong; I know I was wrong; please let us remarry! I beg you, I will listen to you from now on..."
Listening to Zhang Yuru's pleading, Lin Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm his mood, "No, at least not now. Just stay here and don't go anywhere."
Hearing this, the last hope in Zhang Yuru's eyes went out, and she let go and curled up on the sofa.
She was not the kind of woman who would pester others, and she remembered that it was she who first proposed the divorce.
At this moment, she felt the pain of losing Lin Yu.
Lin Yu stared at her for a while and finally left reluctantly.
As he opened the door to leave, he turned back and exhorted: "From now on, I will send you meals three times a day, and I will also be responsible for the water and electricity bills of the house; just rest here with peace of mind."
The moment the door closed, Zhang Yuru curled up tighter, her body began to tremble uncontrollably, followed by her crying, and then the sound of self-reproachful slaps.
She really regretted it, because she had hurt the person who loved her most in the world.
After Lin Yu left, he immediately dialed Xiao Chengzhou's phone.
"Old Xiao, arrange for people to protect Zhang Yuru around the clock."
Although he had already divorced her, in his heart, she would always be his woman. Only he could let her suffer grievances; others could not!
Lin Yu thought of Zhang Yuru's current situation and felt no joy of revenge.
Because he had just learned that there was someone secretly making trouble behind the scenes for why Zhang Yuru divorced him.
Now his goal was revenge, to take back everything that belonged to them.
By then, he would remarry Zhang Yuru.
After ending the call with Xiao Chengzhou, Lin Yu returned to Miao Street.
Two arson attacks had occurred here last night, and the air was filled with the smell of gasoline and scorched objects.
At the west end of Miao Street, the wreckage of seven or eight burned-out sanitation sprinkler trucks sat quietly on the side of the road, and the dozen or so corpses covered with white cloth beside them were even more shocking.
Many residents had begun to move because of fear, and the entire Miao Street was shrouded in panic.
Lin Yu walked along the street, and all around was a scene of chaos.
When he returned to Zhongcaotang, he saw Third Aunt and Li Lin busy.
Several stretchers were placed in the backyard, on which lay several Rong Sect disciples with full-body burns.
Xiao Chengzhou told Lin Yu with a heavy expression that these people were heroes who sacrificed themselves to stop the arson.
Lin Yu clenched his fists, his face gloomy as he asked Xiao Chengzhou, "Your lock-picking skills, didn't you teach them?"
After receiving a negative answer, Lin Yu took a deep breath and said, "From now on, all Rong Sect disciples must master this skill. At the same time, when encountering Neon people in Huacheng, Rong Sect disciples need not show mercy."
Subsequently, Lin Yu took out ten Life-Prolonging Pills and handed them to Third Aunt, "Give these medicines to them."
But Wu Shuping refused, saying that these medicines were ineffective for burns.
Lin Yu said confidently, "What if it's a Marrow Cleansing Pill?"
Hearing this, Wu Shuping looked at the pill in Lin Yu's hand in shock, unable to believe it, "You... you refined the Marrow Cleansing Pill? How is this possible?"
Lin Yu interrupted her, "I succeeded; saving people is urgent."
At this time, Zhang Song found Lin Yu and solemnly handed him a book with a golden cover, "Huaxia Dragon Vein Geomancy," deciding to pass this book to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu was full of confusion and couldn't help but ask: "Master, what are you doing?"
Zhang Song smiled freely and said: "After that fire yesterday, Liu Jinyong cast a hex for me, saying that I am destined to be born by water and die upon seeing fire; it seems my time is running out."
Hearing this, Lin Yu was shocked and wanted to say something to comfort his master.
But Zhang Song continued to smile and said: "Actually, I have long known my destiny; it will be within these one or two years."
Lin Yu hurriedly took out a jade bottle containing a pill, "Master, this is a Marrow Cleansing Pill, you..."
Taking the jade bottle, Zhang Song smiled and said: "You actually have such a treasure, but I have already taken something similar. With it, I can pull a few people to go with me when the time comes."
Looking at Zhang Song's determination, Lin Yu felt a complex mix of emotions.
Clearly, this time the mysterious expert from the Neon country had made Zhang Song feel an unprecedented threat.
"Let's go, go to your room; your Liu master and I will help you try to open your Heavenly Eye."
After speaking, he beckoned to Liu Jinyong, who was drinking tea in the shop, and the three came to Lin Yu's bedroom.
After closing the doors and windows, Zhang Song signaled Lin Yu to sit down, and he and Liu Jinyong stood in front of him.
At this time, Liu Jinyong spoke first: "It is now noon; I will grant you the Heavenly Eye, so you can observe the heavens above and see through the dragon veins below, reading the rise and fall of the world."
Before the words fell, a silver needle flew from his hand and landed steadily between Lin Yu's eyebrows.
A sharp pain struck, and Lin Yu closed his eyes, feeling shocked.
Lin Yu, who had been influenced by family ancient books since childhood, had long known about the existence of the Heavenly Eye and the legends behind it.
It is said that the ancestors of the Lin family used the Heavenly Eye to treat illnesses and save people a thousand years ago, knowing life and death at a glance.
The method for the Lin family to open the Heavenly Eye was also lost a thousand years ago when Lu Xiufu threw himself into the sea.
It wasn't until a hundred years ago that Lin Yu's great-grandfather discovered the ancestral tomb of the Lin family and found a visualization diagram for opening the Heavenly Eye, which brought a turning point.
Now, as Zhang Song's voice slowly spoke the names of the acupoints: "Shaoshang, Xuanming, Lingtai, Baihui, Yintang, Tongshen, Guanguan, Tongyou..."
Lin Yu felt the sharp pain while carefully remembering the location of these acupoints. ===== CHAPTER 125 =====
